1.59 Ct. Cabochon Moonstone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

If you are searching for a singular gem to complete an engagement ring, to elevate a bespoke jewelry commission, or to add a luminous treasure to a serious collector cabinet, this translucent pear shape moonstone answers that need with quiet certainty. This is a 1.59 carat moonstone, pear shaped and expertly formed into a classic cabochon, with measurements of 9.02 by 5.19 by 4.25 millimeters, presenting a graceful elongated silhouette that slips easily into both modern and vintage settings. The gem was sourced from Ceylon Sri Lanka, a historic origin known for delivering moonstones with refined adularescence, and it arrives to you with no enhancements, assuring you of a natural, authentic stone. Opal type is White Opal, and this moonstone displays a refined white opalescent sheen, with a delicate blue flash that plays across the dome as it catches the light, giving it the soft glow collectors prize and designers seek.

We appreciate that discerning customers value both beauty and integrity, and this moonstone delivers on both counts. The cabochon cut is purposefully chosen to maximize the gem's adularescent effect, the phenomenon that creates the striking blue flash which appears to hover just beneath the surface. The polish on this stone is excellent, allowing light to glide over the surface and intensify the blue flash without interruption. Clarity is graded as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means the stone reads clean to most observers while still retaining the natural character and internal reflections that make each moonstone unique. Color intensity is faint, providing a gentle, ethereal background that lets the blue flash and white opalescent surface capture attention rather than compete with stronger body tones.

For those imagining this gem set as the center of an engagement ring or a statement pendant, consider how the pear shape becomes a focal point, elongating the finger and directing the eye to the subtle play of light. Designers will appreciate the balanced dimensions that fit standard settings while still offering room for creative bezels or halo work. Collectors will value the stone for its origin from Ceylon Sri Lanka, its unenhanced natural state, and the tangible quality of a well executed cabochon. Whether your interest is sentimental, aesthetic, or investment driven, this moonstone provides a compelling blend of rarity, classic form, and visual performance that ensures it functions as a centerpiece in any collection.
